    G`day sneezy

    I`d say the problem is going to work at that time of the morning , maybe she`s getting old and likes to stay in bed longer .

    I`d suggest you try staying in bed a bit longer and see if she`s receptive .

    Or i guess it could be an air leak or the needle and seat may be playing up but i`d check the oil level in the dampers first .

    Diaphrams faults can cause and less power and better economy

    Being that the morning air is probably colder and thicker/moister , don`t know .

    Could be a combination of taking her to Sydney and back and waking her too early and she`s got a bit of a cold and she`s just letting you know that she`s still the boss .

    Cheers , pete .
